Probably because everyone liked Bakemonogatari.

popularity of that show is pretty emblematic of shallowness of anime and its fanbase honestly.

you're not going to have a nice time if you're talking badly about Monogatari series in here, except for when you're with Sent

Then there's me, who liked S1 but still could never finish S2.

But I dunno, Monogatari isn't as shallow as most fanservice-based anime.

I am fine with shallow though. My anime rocks mmm'kay.

Monogatari suxs. Unless you are fluent in Japanese. Otherwise you're just in it for the fan-service.

Minamoto-kun monogatari, 163:
Suddenly yuri fanservice and pseudo NTR, what and why.
Is the yandere trying to steal the jock away from MC or what the fuck.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

No, I'm talking about Monogatari S2. The whole thing just gets really old after a while.

S1 had this spark of uniqueness, but in a dialogue-heavy show it's hard to maintain that level of creativity throughout.

I woulda been happier with just pure fanservice for Monogatari S2.

So you are saying if Monogatari S2 was more like Nise (and just fan-service), you would have liked it more? If so, I guess I can see where you are coming from. For all its faults, Monogatari stuff does have good fanservice.

Yeah, exactly. I appreciated the dialogue and uniqueness in S1 but... if neither the dialogue nor story intrigue me anymore, I'll just take fanservice.

Afterall, good fanservice is always greato~

Shame Nise had mainly fanservice for all the wrong characters.

didn't you just say Nise was shit? Shouldn't Nise be the best part in the series if people are in it for the fanservice?

I'm not above liking good parts of bad shows. Plus, its not like Nise is the only one with fanservice. It was jut the one with only fanservice (that I watched).

yeah but generally speaking people like Nisemonogatari the least of the series so far. If your thesis that people are just in it for the fanservice is correct, shouldn't people like it a lot more? No boring conversations, just tits and ass (and tootbrushes) ?
Yet it's the one people like the least.

Or are you saying people who are watching DxD Born are too ashamed to admit they like fanservice to some degree and are just lying to themselves for their own conscience?

Like I said, I can tell you that I liked s2 more than Bakemonogatari and A LOT more than Nisemonogatari. Way more focus on the dialogue again, way more getting trolled by author (which I absolutely loved) and the increased budget and better animation (which are, together with KitaEri the only real two strong points I can think of for Nisemonogatari) admittedly helped as well.
